[@Yankes701001]

I have question about perk coin exchange. Many cards will loose ranks. What about theirs perk coin value? Do I have to exchange all rank loosing cards before patch and buy new ones after patch?

[@brandonmurphy301]

I wondered as well. When Turtle was talking about one of the cards being 1 point instead of 3, the menu showed he had 3 of them available, so I believe they will be split when the new values take effect.

[@AngryTurtle]

they will get split let say you have one card worth 3 points today after update you will have 3 cards worth one point.

Seeing Starched Genes in Endurance makes a lot more sense as it was weird to consider you had to be lucky for your genes to not mutate but it being in endurance feels to make sense

[@billy_cross]

Turtle the key point about night eyes is when you were trying to use night eyes in the past the time you needed it most was when you went in caves or whatever and if it wasn’t night, you couldn’t see shit and you had to turn your light on to sneak and you know, unless you were like ultra ultra sneaky having your light on would reveal youYou never really needed it outside. You needed it when you were in caves and then it just was only working between six and six. That’s a hell of a good change for a night eyes. It makes it actually useful words before nobody used it.

[@kalebcarter3477]

The endurance perk tree getting so crowded is a prime example of why legendary special should bypass the initial 15 special points in relation to perk selection. If I want to use my *legendary* perks to push to 20 endurance I should get the extra 5 perk cards to allocate as well. That being said, I’m enjoying the shakeup after a lot of my cards have been locked in the same place since launch.

[@theangryjess4234]

Yea. This actually would be a good idea that Bethesda should do. I maxed out my legendary endurance a while back cause I needed some of the perks in my builds

[@jvazacas]

If they did that, unyielding would would allow every card to be equipped at the same time. They will never allow that to happen

[@kalebcarter3477]

@@jvazacas not necessarily, that’s why I specified *legendary* special Unyielding is treated like it was before it’s just the legendary special that would allow for the extra perk slots. Because in that case when you pop a radaway *diluted* your perks would unequip?

[@MalkathiusRecord]

I think serendipity is nerfed hard. In scenarios where multiple enemies are hitting you or are shot by fast fire rate weapons, it would trigger so fast you could not measure how many times it saved you. There is another older video showing how perk cards are more valuable than damage resistant armours and in the showcase he's shot by multiple enemies and would never die AFK with a vampiric weapon. Under this new 1-3 second cooldown I think that would no longer be possible and hordes like in daily ops or expeditions could become very dangerous without the fixed percentage, back to back damage evasions without cooldown.

[@Name_Violation]

This is what I came to say, but this is worded a lot better than I would have wrote.

[@billy_cross]

Dude, it only had an 18% chance to go off. It’s not saving you nearly as much as you think when things are shooting at you you’re getting hit by a lot of stuff I mean each time you’re shot it has a one and five chance of going off that’s not great odds Less than a one and five it’s only 18% not 20 so much like everything else. It’s really just boils down to RG people think about RG and they conflated or confuse it with probabilities OK the more times you do a thing that the more everything becomes equal but let’s say you get shot 10 times you may get 10 triggers but you may get no triggers right because again each individual decision is a separate role with separate random number generation probability on the other hand says that if you do it like 10,000 times it’ll probably almost exactly come out to one and five chance of a trigger so watching someone for you know a few minutes you don’t know they may have a film that same segment three times to get the outcome they wanted to display you can’t trust anything you see without testing it yourself through using it a lot not when it relates. I mean to probability when you see somebody that says I figured out the way to get you know legendary drops over and over again with no they didn’t. They just got fucking lucky. They just had really good luck for a little bit and I’ll likelihood whatever bullshit scheme they propose that’s gonna get you a bunch of legendary probably isn’t gonna come true when you try it because the percentage chance for a drop is what it is and only after a long time will probably build the show it stays when you flip a coin you have a50-50 shot at getting what you call. You can still fail to get it a bunch of times in a row but again probability says that if you do it a lot of times 5000 times then it’ll probably reach it equilibrium and you’ll get it half of the time.

[@Hellshine69]

Just a quick tip, if you go to the Help section while in-game, it shows up in menu right under Character Appearance, it will tell you everything you need to find out more about, I'd like to see you utilizing that menu in your videos especially if you also do testing to see if what is said is true or not, but all the stuff about Evade and Deflect is nicely explained there.

[@crazy-tommy]

You forgot Lone Wanderer. It was nerfed quite hard as the 20% damage reduction was turned into less useful damage resistance that scales with charisma. The AP regeneration for Lone Wanderer now also scales with charisma and to get 30% like you had on the old perk you now need at least 15 charisma. Regarding deflect it's probaly worth to mention that you get 50% bonus for it in power armor or heavy armor, so Bullet Shield rank 4 is a 30% chance instead of 20% ... the same applies for the Ricoshet perk. For Junk shield you can also keep legendary modules on you, they are slightly heavier than supply packages (0.15 weight instead of 0.1 weight), but they are easier to get and also don't drop on death. Vault Steel also seems to work and is lighter than supply packages.

[@jvazacas]

@crazy-tommy true, although most players use mutations that require you being on a team and lone wanderer doesn't work when you create a team, even if you are the only person on the team.

[@Saintbow]

@@jvazacas Last time I checked, there is only 1 mutation that requires group play, and the people who favor group play will go after that one mutation. As for "most", just for argument sake, well act like "most" will represent 75% of the players. At peak in the last 30 days Fallout 76 saw little over 16k active players. You are essentially saying 4k or 25% of those players are not worth mentioning perk changes to the card they use. That is a massive chunk of players you just excluded.

[@LCInfantry]

@@jvazacas There has been bugs with lone wanderer, working even while on team. I currently don’t know if that card is working as intended or parts of the card still works while on team.

[@crazy-tommy]

@@jvazacas As it will be fixed that Speed demon gives you the Empath damage reduction on a team, Lone Wanderer would have had an unique selling point if it would have kept the damage reduction. But by turning the damage reduction into damage resistance on Lone Wanderer it lost this benefit and playing in a team is still superior on all aspects as Herd mentality and Strange in Numbers to boost all mutations is just better.

[@jvazacas]

One thing that didn't make patch notes is the Born Survivor change. It now uses the percentage of your hp with rads when low health. So instead of constantly activating it now will activate when your down around 10-20 hp.

[@dtuck1980]

Great video. Questions - When the update happens, will it automatically readjust all your cards and recalculate all your points? If it tries to move a Luck card to Endurance and you don't have enough points in Endurance for the card, what happens? Do we need to take a picture of all our Loadouts so it's easier to fix after the update? Comments - Scaling in many cases is a bad thing. Like Adamantium Skeleton. It's drastically nerfed. Now we'll all be walking around with broken limbs. The cards should give you percentages that it adds per Perk Point and also give you the max, not just say it scales. How are you supposed to know if a card is worth it without all the information. At least now they specifically tell you how much.

[@RolandTengu]

i like how many of the new cards are one star, thus making easier to share without pumping so many S.P.E.C.I.A.L. points into charisma. now, if only we could get more random teammates to share perks, that would be nice. great channel man, thanks for putting in the work.

[@BluegrassGeek]

Never seemed worthwhile to me. If you're taking limb damage, your health is dropping. Use a Stimpak, it automatically fixes the damaged limb while healing. It's not like some of the older Fallout games where you had to go into your Pip Boy and specifically use a Stimpak on the limb itself.

[@jvazacas]

@BluegrassGeek you didn't have to go into the pipboy in the older games to select the limb. Just taking a stimpack healed the limb. Although, it would distribute the stimpacks over your entire body so the limb health didn't increase too much. Selecting the limb increased the limb health itself to 50%

[@unculturedweeb4240]

It's stupid how many perks they've decided to cram into endurance. Some of the perk changes are just dumb.

​@@carlobellapianta-z8o Not for my melee builds...I don't use vats or criticals. (Unarmed or shredder).

[@Barlofontain]

Almost the exact opposite. All the new cards are in Endurance, which is the only one UY doesn't buff and they have dropped the VATS cost on heavy weapons, whilst also boosting Power Armour, so I'd say they're leaning onto PA Heavy Gunner builds more

[@crazy-tommy]

If you used "Unyielding builds" as synonym for "Bloodied builds", then I agree on that part. Playing Bloodied is easier than it ever was, I tested on PTS and at the soft cap of 30 Endurance (15 base + herd mentaility + pemmican + 2x endurance on armor) the new Lifegiver perk gives 180 hitpoints alone. With 30 Endurance and Livegiver my total health was 610, so 20% of that is 122 hitpoints. Thats quite a lot to survive most hits. Due to the changes in favor of Heavy gunners PA might become the dominant playstyle, but an easy 50% damage reduction from Emergency Protocols and +162.5% additive damage bonus from Bloodied + Nerd Rage + Adrenal Reaction is still a very good reason to go Bloodied. But also Unyielding armor builds benefit from this increase in total health.

[@donnellcrenshaw6391]

Gonna need to complete rework my build. More tank than b4. Also thanks for that tip. Gonna carry vault steel with me all the time. Just gotta remember to take it out each time I drop my junk off?

[@konakoffee5262]

Thank for explaining the new perk cards! I’m a new player and still figuring things out.

[@mikebilodeau1693]

One Negative effect. If you were playing a bloodied build and running serendipity you used to be able to get 45% evasion without a cooldown for three points. Spending 2 points on the new serendipity + evasive you would have 34% with a 30 in luck and agility. Also If you are in heavy armor it sounds like this will only go off every 3 sec. So if we are getting hit about 1 per sec you will have a 34 percent chance to evade then after it works the next 3 hits automatically bypass evasion and hit. This lowers the effectiveness of evasion in half to evading about 17% of the total hits or just over 1/3 the effectiveness of the current card.

[@kavalogue]

I feel like I'm missing something. I just loaded up I'm running my bloodied build and I can't stop dying. Everything is killing me 🤣

[@mikebilodeau1693]

@@kavalogue Id recommend looking for effects that have a block chance instead of adding armor like Serendipity and Blockers. Running 1 rank of born survivor will have stim packs going off every 20 sec in combat and the mutation healing factor will ensure you are always as high health as possible for your rads. If you are in power armor you lose the option of unyielding so you can take overeaters and you can run emergency protocols instead of a jetpack for a 50% damage reduction. With this setup fully fed whenever you take damage you would take 35% off for being in power armor, then take 30 percent off the remainder for the overeaters, then take 50% off the remainder for emergency protocols. This adds up to about 77.5% less damage not counting your armor ratings or other effects.

So do serendipity and evasive have a timegate now? As in a cooldown?

[@Khoreali]

I'm excited for this, the perk cost mainly. I'm sad to see evasion change, but i can now just replace it with ironclad (if i end up needing it). I am hesitant on the loss of more consistent dodge chance, and worried SS counts as heavy armor i've not looked. If it does that really solidifies Civil engineer > Secret Service seeing CE counts as medium, I and i know others are on the fence if the (SS)Resistance difference is worth the (CE)set bonus loss for bloodied builds at least. I'll also note as a bloodied build i've always highly invested into Endurance purely to negate the low HP with added resistance/HP total so i'm semi unaffected in this change where i know quite a few are upset they need to completely rework their build where as i'm just changing some perk card placements. i also run on average with 31 Endurance (food+camp buff+20special), that new life giver gonna be a life changer more likely currently run with roughly 84ish HP in bloodied, i have no idea what it will be after. The only thing i'm worried about is the evasion chance cool down, Granted Heavy weapon bloodied builds look like they'll be the new meta which they pretty much were already, but now with added tankiness from Bullet shield. I'm sad i enjoy the bloodied build so much and that it's so hated, I've always loved in games when you do better lower HP but obviously in 76 is vastly over powered. Just sad that realistically in any MMO if there's a low health build it's one i prefer to play and in this game it gets so much hate.

[@Vityanvityan]

I wonder how evasive works with serendipity in tandem. Do they trigger together and go to the same cooldown or can they cover each other, and while evasive isnon cooldown, ricochet can trigger.

[@mikebilodeau1693]

My understanding from The DuchessFlame datamining is that Evasive and serendipity add together to give you an evasion chance and Richochet and Bullet shield add together to give you a Deflection chance. Evasion reduces damage to 0 and Deflection reduces damage by 50% and reflects damage back at the attacker. I believe both of these would have separate cooldowns. So if you are running both serendipity and evasive and you had 30 in both agility and luck you would get 25% from serendipity, 9% from evasion to total of 34%. With a 30 in luck Richochet would be 20% and 4 ranks of bullet shield would also be 20% for 40% total. Being in Heavy or Power Armor also buffs Defection by 50% so in the previous instance you would have 60% deflection chance. If you are in power armor you also deflect twice as much damage. Not sure if this will stack with the new 4 star legendary power armor effect. So originally Evasion just had a flat 2 sec cooldown added. Now I am hearing that based on your armor type it will be 1-3 sec. So in heavy armor with a 3 sec cooldown your 34% evasion chance would be more like 17% assuming you were getting hit 1 per sec. There was no listed cooldown for refection originally so I am not sure if this cooldown also applies to reflection but I would assume there would be a separate cooldown as these are separate effects.

[@Notahandle.3]

Will the cooldowns stack? So, for example, if evasive procs, can serendipity or ricochet protect you from other damage? Or if one either evasive,serendipity, or ricochet procs, everything goes on cool down?

[@crazy-tommy]

Iron Stomach is also the perk I will kick out. As I want to switch to a Heavy Gunner build I thought about switching to the Thru Hiker's legendary effect to also kick out Traveling pharmacy for more heavy gunner perks, but 90% weight reduction for all weapons is too good to give up. For Endurance I kicked out Radicool and Iron Stomach on PTS to make room for the Thru Hiker perk. I also tested kicking out Vaccinated, but having to deal with diseases all the time was too annoying for me.

[@crazy-tommy]

It was nerfed quite hard as the 20% damage reduction was turned into less useful damage resistance that scales with charisma. The AP regeneration for Lone Wanderer now also scales with charisma and to get 30% like you had on the old perk you now need at least 15 charisma. With full Unyielding you might get slightly more AP regen out of it than you have now, but it will be less powerful on the defense side no matter how much charisma you have.

Will holding down fire continuously give a chance for it to proc or will you only get a chance once you initially hold press the fire button? I assume heavy guns that fire bullets will give you a chance for each bullet. Very excited for these changes. Not been playing recently because of all the bugs in the game atm. Hope the main ones get fixed once the new season starts.

[@Vityanvityan]

Did you even watch the video? Not a fan of turtle, nor the fun of hidden effects in Bethesda games, perks and everything, but he covered this perk pretty well.

[@crazy-tommy]

When firing a heavy gun Bullet Shield is active for 6 seconds. Within these 6 seconds you have 20% chance to deflect in light/medium armor and 30% chance to deflect in heavy/power armor. Deflect reduces incoming damage to you by 50% and reflects 100% of the incoming damage. So when using the Holy Fire it will be active the whole time and stops when you haven't attacked for more than 6 seconds. The Enclave Plasma Flamer is not a heavy weapon, so Bullet Shield does not activate.

[@barelyasurvivor1257]

Will Bullet Shield work with the shredder or is it only with actually firing the mini gun?

[@sorcerersmagic]

The effects are good but the negative is how they all stack. Also, Some cards should be a learned skill like with plans like Hacking & Pick-locking. They also limited All Night long with pre-war. Anyway, love your vids.

[@brettpeckinpaugh]

What will hurt short term is my legendary build. I have Luck as one and might not need that many points and would need to level up Endurance.

[@nonamegiven202]

just waiting to saw the flames in the discord when Uny gets hit with all the rebalancing, "the nail that sticks out gets hammered down" and all that. granted bloodied has a bit less survivability then they did have with this pass.

[@dpellek74]

Yea. But lifegiver doesn't work on the front end only extends your bar. i wish it would boost your hp number instead of just an extension

[@jacobjenkins805]

What? Yes it does.

[@hoofhearted4]

I havent played since like the beginning of the year. With all the changes, I'd like to see you do a build guide for The Dragon. Its my favorite weapon, I love One Shot One Kill builds. Just wanna run a build that does the single highest target damage in one shot possible. Would also like to see a DoT build (my other favorite playstyle in games). I know some stuff was being added to buff DoT. Hoping it was viable now (note: Viable =/= meta to me, just want to be able to solo roam and not take 20 minutes to kill something haha)

[@PREDATOR310]

I love the changes, but I don't like that thru-hiker and starched genes were moved into Endurance. It's too overcrowded now, especially if you use heavy guns, and 4* bullet shield is a must have. I would've left both starched genes and thru-hiker in LCK and AGI.

[@ItsBobbyBlTCH]

As usual, Angry Turtle comes in with the fantastic information that we all need! Angry Turtle is the goat 😡 🐢

[@sabatheus]

Looks like a lot of great changes! Looking forward to the next season.

[@billy_cross]

Please they don’t say in unyielding armor. They say you know scales with this or that special so I mean I get 30 strength without being in unyielding armor between buffs and maxed out strength and and legendary report card. I end up at like nearly 30 strength anyway when I when I hit my three important boss, but many bills that weren’t trying to be in unyielding well now have to bite the bullet because the benefits are just too great for instance, you know people trying to hit that threshold of luck for credits. Given that many things in luck now scale on your luck either way I only saw a couple of these that really I thought weren’t great.

[@dans3519]

I think youve got 4 leaf clover wrong and its actually giving you 69% of the amount a hit would normally charge the crit meter. It says "contribute to" not charge as normal

[@lowriderbug]

i think they should give us a couple more skill points say 55 total points and max 17 per special slot. then the overcrowding in END wont be as much of an issue and players can use cards for different weapon types/playstyles at the same time but at the cost of less effective build but more options of how to fight.

[@ScottPeterson-kc9uo]

Junk shield seems to max at 111, for damage and energy resistance. No matter the type of junk carried so pick something light and you don't mind losing if you are downed.😅 Admantium skeleton cant seem to get above 57% no matter what.

[@chrischassey4849]

Any ideas on Legendary Peeks for updates?

[@Upyours24]

Will you be updating all your build videos when these perk changes all take effect?

[@billy_cross]

What if you just spin up an empty mini gun do you have to actually fire a single bullet?

[@catsuperhighway1294]

Four leaf cover perk, does that mean that critical hits may have a chance to miss next patch? Currently on live criticals don't miss. This updated perk seems really OP as it is if it goes live.

[@crazy-tommy]

No critical hits still always hits. Four leaf clover now helps filling up your crit bar if you miss. Normally you only get crit refill on hits. The crit refill of Four leaf clover is based on your normal crit refill, so at 15 Luck you get 50% of your normal crit refill on a miss, so if you normally crit every other shot you would also get enough crit refill if you miss twice.

[@lukexxl]

Im already waiting for your new LAZY builds 🤔😁✌

[@MJS_RaptorSVT]

Regarding the change to Four leaf clover….would you say it makes the +50% VATS Hit Chance Mod for weapons not as useful now?

[@cdallos255]

doesnt matter .....+50% VATS hit chance is about acuracy .......four leaf clover is about crit refresh

[@carlaspinwall4247]

Is it worth scraping current perk cards before patch then getting new versions. Or will they be worth the same amount of perk points

[@AngryTurtle]

no need

[@jscotthatcher380]

13:58 awesome. i have never opened any of those packages. 😁 i have probably around 70 of them.

[@beastabuelos6421]

I've made over 500 caps at a moonshine jamboree. Cap collector is going to actually make that a viable way to make some caps 😂 Adamantium skeleton's change will definitely be a negative change for me. My limbs seem to cripple like crazy without it. And first aid on my heavy gunner will probably be a nerf. My intelligence on there is only like 12. I might need to start using egg head again. 99% positive changes though

[@neilsargeson1695]

I have one for you to look in to on my legendary perk cards I have the 6 cards that add 5 to each perk stack and 5 perk points I have all but one and there is a locked slot any ideas about how to unlock this 7th slot can you have a look please .Neil from the U.K.

[@billy_cross]

That’s why I asked turtle why would you need reflect deflection in a boss fight which boss is shooting at you if it’s if it’s only for things that ricochet works for everything shooting at you, but let’s lasers whatever it doesn’t work for any incoming physical damage from Malay or other sources doesn’t work for explosions. Doesn’t work for anything but bullets or projectile weapons of any sort so ricochet oh that’s not true. It also works for like that. What do you call the fire the cry in the fire and the poison at you the floating gas bags can’t think with their call it works for them as well, but what I’m saying is what boss is attacking you with those kind of weapons that it would be Needed. I don’t think ricochet works with the Queen‘s breath for instance or her well any of her attacks really the word deflection brings to mind deflecting melee

[@jackofblades6736]

Sucks that if you’re not high enough to have the maxed legendary perks you’ll gonna struggle.
